Kick off the holiday season Nov. 23 with a sneak, non-motorized preview of the 14th annual Fantasy Lights at Spanaway Park.

This is the only opportunity to walk through the Northwest’s largest drive-through holiday lights display. The Walk provides a close-up preview of more than 300 animated displays and thousands of lights along the winding route through the forested park on the shore of Lake Spanaway.

The walking event will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. starting at the Sprinker Recreation Center, 14824 S. C St. Lines will form in the parking lot for the walk to the park entrance. Coffee, cocoa and snack items will be available for purchase. An average of 3,500 walkers participate each year in the 2.5 mile walk.

Admission, paid inside the park, is $12 for a family of four or $4 per person. Children 3 and under are free. The Walk, which will occur rain or shine, is stroller and wheelchair friendly. For safety reasons, dogs, in-line skates, bikes, skateboards and scooters are not allowed.

Held at Pierce County’s Spanaway Park, Fantasy Lights is viewed by more than 120,000 visitors in more than 23,000 vehicles each year between Thanksgiving Day and News Year’s Eve weekend.
